ME 54500 - Finite Element Analysis: Advanced Theory and Applications

Theory of the course covers various algorithms for non-linear and time-depended problems in two  and three dimensions. Application of the course cover the advanced topics with problems chosen from solid mechanics, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics. Commercial FEA packages such as ANSYS and/or ABAQUS are applied to solve various engineering problems. Students must possess an appropriate level of mathematics and programming skills to understand, develop and program solvers for finite element models.

Preparation for Course
P: ME 480 or Graduate standing.
